Question

During the annual function of a school, a Women’s Self-help Group had set up a snacks stall. Their sales every hour were worth Rs 960, Rs 830, Rs 945, Rs 800, Rs 847, Rs 970 respectively. What was the average of the hourly sales?

Answer 1

(Average hourly sales) = (sum of sales every hour)/( number of hours)

= (960 + 830 + 945 + 800 + 847 + 970)/6

= 5352/6

= Rs. 892 

∴ The average of the hourly sales was Rs. 892.
